While they didn’t specifically dispute any of this, Saudi Arabia was predictably furious about the report, angrily condemning it as having “misconstrued the facts of the conflict… ignoring the true reasons for the conflict,” while saying that it was an Iranian coup against the “legitimate government in Yemen.”

While previous UN resolutions more or less accepted the Saudi narrative that the war is meant to reinstall the Hadi government, that massive death toll and the many, many war crimes committed have fueled a lot of international consternation.

Still, UN reports detailing war crimes by the Saudi coalition have been met by Saudi condemnation, and in the past that, combined with US support for the war, has been enough to keep the UN from doing anything in particular about the situation. The UN General Assembly has repeatedly acquiesced to demands that the Saudis be allowed to investigate themselves on the war, which has meant probes are rare, and never come up with anything meaningful.

Never any context in these articles as to what is behind the attacks on Yemen. The former Yemen President, Abdrabbuh Mansur Hadi, was a globalist lapdog working to put Yemen on the fast track to assimilation into the Gulf Cooperation Council. The GCC is a replica of the EU, the next step to regional and world government.

When the Houthis kicked out Hadi, the globalists went into overdrive to get Yemen back into the fold and are likely drawing out the atrocities of war to destroy any and all future opposition.

If the UN is to mean anything in this turbulent world it must act for the good of all. It must not be seen to be catering to American wishes and foibles. When peoples’ lives are at stake, the Security council must convene to deal with the problem. There, at least, any member’s lack of concern or lack of humanity can be shown through the way they vote. They can be targeted for derision and censure.
